Solution Overview
Problem
Existing optical image stabilization systems for small devices, such as mobile phones, face limitations due to dimension constraints, which restrict the effectiveness of image stabilization and lead to image blur caused by camera vibration.
Innovation Solution
A camera module with a movable lens assembly and sensor assembly, driven by a control signal through a driving assembly, allowing for various positional relationships and adaptive movement to enhance image stabilization and focusing capabilities.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Volume of moving object
If sensor movement image stabilization is used in small devices, then the device size is reduced, but the image stabilization space is significantly restricted
Solution Approach 1:
The patent divides the image stabilization function into two independent movable components: the lens assembly and the sensor assembly. Each component can move separately to compensate for vibration, effectively doubling the stabilization capability within the same compact space, thus resolving the contradiction between small device size and sufficient stabilization space.
Solution Approach 2:
The patent utilizes both the horizontal plane (for vibration compensation) and the vertical direction (for focusing and depth of field adjustment) of the lens assembly and sensor assembly movements. This multi-dimensional movement capability maximizes the utilization of limited internal space while providing comprehensive image stabilization and focusing functions.
2Device complexity
If only sensor assembly moves for image stabilization, then the structure is simple, but the image stabilization effect is limited
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments the image stabilization function between two independently movable components: the lens assembly and the sensor assembly. Each component has its own driving assembly that can operate independently or cooperatively, providing enhanced stabilization effect while maintaining relatively simple individual structures that are easy to manufacture and control.
3Adaptability or versatility
If lens assembly and sensor assembly move separately, then more positional relationships can be formed, but the control complexity increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements dynamic control where the lens assembly and sensor assembly can move independently or cooperatively based on real-time imaging requirements. The control system dynamically adjusts the movement of each component to achieve various positional relationships for different shooting scenarios (such as portrait mode, landscape mode, macro photography), providing high adaptability while managing control complexity through coordinated movement algorithms.
